Riding the line between talking theology / doing debates, and all the other issues like geopolitics, lit, satire has been an odd thing. For some it is confusing, for others, not an issue.
However, after 10 years of mixed content, I feel that the time of online theology debate for me has come to a close. No one has of yet told me to say this - it’s a decision I’ve pondered for a while. I would rather focus on other topics I find interesting and religion is authentically at the parish level, not online anyway. It seems as if online theology debate is pretty much done. Onward to producing fun content on the other subjects!
@JayDyer When you're needed to save the day, the symbol will fly in the night sky.
You did amazing leading a large group of slow boys.
You got some beasts behind you. Most of the Orthodox creators can hold their own now.
We look forward to any creative direction you take brother.
@JayDyer have you ever done a movie analysis on The Beyond (1981) . It's italo horror from Lucio Fulci and it has a pretty good thought provoking end. Might almost remind you of some Backrooms ideas on finally getting sent to a hell where they're alone.
Would love your take.
Show me the verse that says women should receive the Lord’s supper.
Evangelicals impose insanely high burdens of proof on others that they themselves don’t meet!
@Craig_Truglia As Protestants and evangelicals, they pretty much have to close their eyes to exist in opposition to the Orthodox Church. It's pretty sad.
The text considered *the most authoritative* outside the Bible by Justin Martyr, Theophilus of Antioch, and Athenagoras explicitly contains Marian and saintly intercession.
The document is from the FIRST century.
I ask the Protestants give up on Patristics after this Saturday.
@RealBenMichael@needGod_net@Acts17David A big part of it is the need for humility. I was an iconoclast in every sense. It was so hard for me to walk into the church the first time.
When I looked at the icons in church, staring back at me, I said something is very wrong here.
I got humbled quickly.
@Alex_Ortodoxie@KingMic92357513 I watched for about 20 minutes (🤢) and discovered Ryan and Matt Powell use the exact same proof texts almost in the exact same order. It’s a script!
